Predicting Hallucinogen Use During Adolescence and Early Adulthood in Justice-Involved Youth Using the Dual Systems Model: Does Salience Vary Across the Life-Course
BACKGROUND: Hallucinogen use among justice-involved youth presents an understudied public health problem. Variation in cognitive development of impulse control and sensation-seeking may be relevant for predicting this behavior. That said, there remains a dearth of research which has examined these relationships from a life-course perspective. The present study addresses this gap in the literature by examining sensation-seeking and impulse control…
Latent Clusters of Peer Behaviors in Childhood and Relevance for Understanding Substance Use in Early Adolescence
Peers have been found to be an important influence on adolescent behavior. However, there remains limited research examining childhood peer behaviors as predictors of later substance use. Examinations have not included full behavior profiles comprising both antisocial and prosocial peer behaviors. This study sought to identify latent clusters of peer behaviors during childhood and their relevance for understanding substance use. The Adolescent Br…
Examining PTSD as a Predictor of Trajectories of Depression/Anxiety Symptoms Among Justice-Involved Women
Despite high prevalence of mental health needs, research examining justice-involved women’s (JIW) PTSD as a predictor of trajectories of (i.e., changes in) depression/anxiety is lacking. For 402 JIW in a longitudinal study, group-based trajectory modeling identified four patterns of change in depression/anxiety symptoms. Multinomial logistic regression showed that PTSD symptoms predicted assignment to the High Chronic and Recurring anxiety/depres…
Heterogeneity in the development of differential reinforcement: Examining predictive power of definitions and differential association from a social learning perspective
Major Depressive Disorder as a Driver of Dual Systems Model Development During Adolescence and Emerging Adulthood Among Justice-Involved Youth: Is Salience Age-Graded
The dual systems model is a psychological framework centered on differential development of sensation-seeking and impulse control during adolescence and emerging adulthood with implications for understanding antisocial behavior. However, there is a dearth of research which has examined mental illness as a driver of differential development of these constructs. This study examined major depressive disorder as a risk factor for elevated sensation-s…
Timing of traumatic brain injury as a predictor of dual systems development: Testing for moderation effects of concurrent age
Longitudinal Comorbidity of Anxiety and Depressive Symptoms: The Risk of Cyber Sexual Harassment
Parental Monitoring as a Predictor of Self-Injurious Behavior: The Mediating Role of Dual Systems Model Constructs
Weak parental monitoring has been identified as a risk factor for self-injurious behavior. However, there remains a dearth of research identifying mechanisms underpinning this relationship. Variance in dual systems model cognitive development (impulse control, sensation-seeking) was tested as a set of mediators of this relationship. The Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development data were analyzed. Generalized structural equation modeling was used to…
Association between marijuana use and cognitive development: Relevance for dual systems
Examining gang membership and victimisation as predictors of gun violence perpetration: Testing for Interactive Effects
Research has indicated the relevance of gang membership and victimisation as risk factors for predicting the perpetration of gun violence. However, there is a dearth of research that has examined the potential that gang membership may moderate the impact of victimisation on gun violence perpetration. This study examined this prospect within a sample of justice-involved youth. The Pathways to Desistance dataset was analysed. Generalised estimating…
Examining Deviant Peer Association in Childhood as a Predictor of Marijuana Use in Early Adolescence: The Mediating Role of Dual Systems Model Constructs
Convicted women's trajectories of community and financial adversity and race
Relative impacts of a virtual cooking and nutrition program for children and families
Among the many factors contributing to increased consumption of ultraprocessed foods, a societal decline in cooking skills is a barrier to achieving healthy dietary patterns among children and adolescents. The current study assessed the effectiveness of a healthy cooking program, its geographic reach, and whether program format (child only, in-person format vs. family-based, virtual format) influenced outcomes. This was a quasi-experimental compa…
Early Life Poly-Victimization and Differential Development of Anxiety as Risk Factors for the Continuity of Substance Dependence in Adulthood
Background: Abuse of psychoactive substances may lead to physical and/or physiological dependence on said substances. While a great deal of research has focused on risk factors predicting onset, there has been little research focused on risk factors influencing continued dependence on substances in adulthood following onset early in life. Purpose/Objectives: The present study examined poly-victimization and developmental patterns of anxiety as pr…
Racial differences in developmental patterns of social consequences of drug use
This study sought to examine differences in developmental patterns of social consequences of drug use among youth offenders and investigate the relevance of race for predicting trajectory-group assignment. The Pathways to Desistance data were used in analyses, comprising the responses of 1,354 juvenile offenders followed across 84 months after an adjudication for a serious offense. Group-based trajectory modeling was used to identify developmenta…

The Development of Marijuana Dealing Behavior During Adolescence and Early Adulthood Among Juvenile Offenders: Risk Factors for Development
Despite the amount of attention paid to marijuana use, there has yet to be any research that examines heterogeneity in the development of marijuana dealing behavior across time. This research used group-based trajectory modeling to elucidate developmental trends in this behavior and examines how risk factors may predict heterogeneity in marijuana dealing among a sample of juvenile offenders. The Pathways to Desistance data set, a sample of 1,354 …
Initiation, Desistence, and Recovery: A Qualitative Examination of Self-Injury from a Life-Course Perspective
Self-injury is typically defined as the intentional harm caused to one’s own body. This phenomenon has historically been studied mainly from a psychological perspective and has focused less on social forces related to engagement in this behavior. While research on self-injury has examined etiology extensively, there has yet to be an examination of how changes in exposure to risk and protective factors may lead to changes in self-injury habits. Th…
Pathways to Self-Injury: A Qualitative Exploration of Social Psychological Processes
Self-injury is a deviant behavior often understood as the intentional infliction of harm onto one’s own body that exists absent of suicidal. This study uses a qualitative methodology to examine the etiology and perpetuation of self-injury using the terminology of relevant social-psychological theories to determine which processes best describe a causal pathway leading to self-injury and its perpetuation after the onset of the behavior. Data obtai…
